It also has small white toadstools about a quarter inch across emerging from the potting compost. Help please. Other thab this it looks a picture of health

    Hello from Colorado


    If you could provide a picture it would help. However, in the past, this hasn't been seen as a bad thing. If it bothers you, you can remove the 'shrooms. It should not cause any problems with the orchid as best as I know. So you can also leave them where they are.
